10 Things iPhone Lacks Compared to Android Smartphones


iPhone5 is expected to come in Q3 or Q4, Apple is all set to spread charisma again just like it does with New iPad. But how it gonna compete with Android based smart phones which already have captured more than 50 percent of the market and stealing the top position in the smart phone arena. Well that’s a trivial question and the answer it quite difficult to answer. We have come up with the complete analysis on the 10 things of iPhone which lacks when compared to the Aura of Android based smart phones. So let us quick have a glimpse of these 10 things and find out on which areas Apple should work on to compete with Googles Android based smart phones.

1. Desktop


In iPhone you are not allowed to add up widgets on the home screen and it only have an icon littering your phone desktop. Whereas Android smart phone allows you to add widget to your home screen and which also shorten the time to reach to the final app.

2. Browsing


Android web browser is among the best browser in the app market and it provides you best user experience of accessing the web on the go. The default browser can’t be beat in any aspect of browsing even in the presence of the Opera Mini and Dolphin. It loads pages faster than the default browser in Apple iPhone: Safari. 

3. PC Connection


In iPhone you need to have iTunes to manage your phone and in case of Android system without any special software package detects the SD card and let to add music and other files to your smart phone.

4. Connectivity


You can simply turn off/On and settings of Bluetooth, WIFI, mobile network and GPS on the single page to conserve the battery life, where as in iPhone you need to navigate yourself around different corners to do so.

5. Multi Notification


Not all apps in iPhone have the access to the notification system and you only get the notification of update when you open up the app. In case of Android, all the apps have the access to the central notification system and which constantly provides you the notification of updates for all apps installed on your smart phone.

6. App Market


Apple has iTunes which is a Apple App market and so does Android have; google play. But chances are there that you will find more free apps on Google play as compared to iTunes. Installing app from Google play is quite simple and easy and unlike iPhone you don’t have to link to itunes to purchase the app.

7: Endless personalization


Android smart phones allow you to configure your look and behavior of your smart phone as per your demand and needs. You can personalize your home screen in Android which is only possible in case of iPhone.

8. Open source


As Android is an open source, anyone can freely develops apps and system apps for smart phones. Updates on Android are flooded; where as in case of iPhone, not much of the opportunity is there.


9. Google Integration


Integration to wide range of google services which is not there in case of iPhone.


10: Open to carriers


You can enjoy your Android smart phone with any number of carriers and can enjoy the signals of any carrier, where as it case of iPhone it comes mostly with phone lock.
